I got a N3DS with 8.1.0-0 system version, which means it does not have browser, thus no browserhax.

I have searched various guides,It seems that oot3dhax should be possible but currently not exist. I got OoT3D cart and an R4i save dongle, but there is no "ropbin""sav file for 8.1.0" or whatever it needs for CFW to use.

But I also have a GW card. And I have successfully booted into GW menu using OOT3D save provided by GW. (thanks to the save dongle)
Now the questions:
Can I use GW card to "downgrade" SysNand to 9.2? Is there any reason to do so? (other than CFW,obviously)
It seems that it is possible to install CFW with GW card, is there a guide for it?

Thanks for the suggestion!
After some 5 hours of searching tutorials, I decide to keep using the GW card until the downgrade method is proved to be stable with OoT3dhax.
Although I actually want to use gateway to downgrade to MSET 4.x and install ..CakeCFW? from there, but if I can not use it to update SysNand to 9.2 it's quite pointless to do so.
Maybe I spent too much time on this today, must have some rest..

My console is 8.1j as well and for the longest time I did what you did, GW and OoT 3D. but i really wanted menuhax because I'm lazy as hell and I also wanted to support things like NTR and ninjahax and stuff, so I hosted the private server and updated that way

It's actually remarkably easy even tho it might not sound like it. if you ever wanna do it and need help let me know

rubbish don't upgrade and then downgrade, use the private NUS server

ninjahax (as in, HBC through cubic ninja) doesnt support 8.1 but NTR works on 8.1 obviously to be able to perform the update, my bad, scratch that bit in my post my memory's just botched

but yeah to boot into NTR you need cubic ninja and a japanese copy as you may know is VERY expensive. luckily i found a guy on gbatemp who was selling his sky for cheap so I bought it and put CN on there and did the job
